Abstract

Let Γ ∖ ℍ 3 be a finite-volume quotient of the upper-half space, where Γ ⊂ SL ( 2 , ℂ ) is a discrete subgroup. To a finite dimensional unitary representation χ of Γ one associates the Selberg zeta function Z ( s ; Γ ; χ ) . In this paper we prove the Artin formalism for the Selberg zeta function. Namely, if Γ ˜ is a finite index group extension of Γ in SL ( 2 , ℂ ) , and π = Ind Γ Γ ˜ χ is the induced representation, then Z ( s ; Γ ; χ ) = Z ( s ; Γ ˜ ; π ) . In the second part of the paper we prove by a direct method the analogous identity for the scattering function, namely φ ( s ; Γ ; χ ) = φ ( s ; Γ ˜ ; π ) , for an appropriate normalization of the Eisenstein series.

AB - Let $\Gamma \backslash \mathbb{H}^3$ be a finite-volume quotient of the upper-half space, where $\Gamma \subset {\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ is a discrete subgroup. To a finite dimensional unitary representation $\chi $ of $\Gamma $ one associates the Selberg zeta function $Z(s;\Gamma ;\chi )$. In this paper we prove the Artin formalism for the Selberg zeta function. Namely, if $\tilde{\Gamma }$ is a finite index group extension of $\Gamma $ in ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$, and $\pi ={\rm Ind}_{\Gamma }^{\tilde{\Gamma }}\chi $ is the induced representation, then $Z(s;\Gamma ;\chi )=Z(s;\tilde{\Gamma };\pi )$. In the second part of the paper we prove by a direct method the analogous identity for the scattering function, namely $\phi (s;\Gamma ;\chi )=\phi (s;\tilde{\Gamma };\pi )$, for an appropriate normalization of the Eisenstein series.
